[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] As a parent of both private and public school kids now in college from MoCo, I have learned that the public and private school kids are not in the same college admissions pools, largely because many of the privates give lower grades, such as Bs and—gasp—even Cs on a regular basis. The mcps “w” high schools, however, are in the same pool. And in a more micro-level, colleges are looking within each school to assess where students fall—top 10%, 25%, 50%, etc. [/quote] You may be surprised to hear that MCPS high schools also give Bs and - gasp - even Cs on a regular basis. Maybe not at the "W" high schools that are in the same college pool as the private schools, though. I don't know because my children are not at one of them.[/quote]
